Hamelekim posted:How do you filter which container stuff goes to when mixed? There doesn’t seem to be a filter for automation. The resource bins are specific to types (raw, crafted, liquid, gas) and the transfer station sends them accordingly. That's it as far as automatic sorting goes. The bins end up holding a random mishmash of poo poo so you can't find anything specific as your bin count goes up, but it's considered one big pool for the crafting stations at least.

I DID IT. I MADE THE SPECIAL DRUGS. And somewhat surprisingly, it involved a lot of alien cum harvesting. With a Coachman. Innovative Synthesis 1:    Innovative Synthesis 2:    Innovative Synthesis 3:    Google gave me a recommendation for the alien cum: just get to NG+ and find the merchant that sells rare poo poo lmao Oh, and don't forget to harvest the weird rocks near each artifact!

You would think I would be used to this bullshit by now in videogames. But I am still caught off guard by taking a generic job at level 9, and getting annihilated by a level 26 mission target surrounded by level 5 enemies in a level 15 system. "Well, I can always go back and... Not do any cargo jobs because they are always asking for over a thousand free cargo capacity to pay me barely 3k" Sure money will be a nonissue later. But that is later. EDIT: "Oh right, I have grenades!" *two damage* "...I am very lucky this AI is a coward wanting to hide behind cover instead of just coming out and slapping me to death" Oh boy they were worth 40 experience to kill instead of 20.

chaosapiant posted:Named mind “Stargasm” because Mastodon is awesome and the name is too.  (I was listening to them yesterday!) In other news, I think you can sometimes notice how NPC dialogues being so lazy. Sometimes you have 2 or 3 options: -the first one, basically being a general yes/agreed/continue/accept, whatever. -the second one, that also means the same but in a weird tone, or trying to sound like a smartass, or like a crazy person, it depends. Well, several times I picked the first one but the answer I got sounded as I had picked the second line. I think they just wrote one possible reply to save time/effort, so from your possible replies, they picked the most unique option (the 2nd one) and wrote the reply to that.

Lower the difficulty and your current ship will instantly be able to handle it. It's always doable on normal at least, with the constellation people assigned for their bonuses. For just making money you can rob the neon security HQ (gun racks in the office and contraband locker) and sell what you get at the trade authority (buy back the guns and sell next door at neon tactical for fewer waits). Then go to Venus, wait for two hours (which is 200 universe hours) and when you go back to Neon everything will be respawned for you to do it again. Looting guns is also good, ideally while doing some kind of mission for the guaranteed mission money cause sometimes even the level 98 spacers have lovely 1900 credit guns. gnoma fucked around with this message at 09:04 on Sep 15, 2023 |

question of the day: I'm putting together a crew, they need to be morally flexible. I brought Mathis and Jessamine from the Crimson fleet - anyone else I should consider? Like they have to be kinda ok when I decide to redistribute wealth using means not sanctioned by a state entity... occasionally convince someone to shoot someone in the face or failing that, shooting them myself.

My feelings on Starfield keep flip flopping. I think I need to do one of the faction quest lines, because the game is killing me with how dull the main quest is. Bethesda storylines were never the main attraction, but somehow they’ve managed to lower the bar. Story missions shouldn’t feel like homework. And what were they thinking with the temple “activities”? There’s so much about this game that feels like a rough draft.

I've been neglecting main quest and just doing the faction storylines and honestly they've been pretty interesting. I'm not a huge fan of the Freestar collective but the quest I'm on is actually making me interested in what's actually the big mystery there. It'll also be funny if it ends up with me taking down some incredibly powerful individuals for the sole reason of sending goons to some woman's farm, which was the motivation to start the whole investigation.

Sometimes when it has been a long time since a gummy faced eerily positive walking vacuous empty space of a "character" has said anything it gets pretty nice for a brief moment. At other times the blank stares and spooky optimism make it feel almost like a horror game.

Rinkles posted:Like even ME Andromeda handled the kinda equivalent part of their game much much better. The equivalent in NMS has you walking over panels in a big Darth Vader room that light up words or letters that gradually unlock the language of the relevant entity but also open up the big shiny orb macguffin. You need to step on X before it opens and you can walk on all of them if you care about unlocking the language sooner. It's one of my least favourite chores in NMS because it's just walking around an empty room basically and there's not a good route to get em all without backtracking. I think it's only marginally better than this one because you can't really miss stepping on a glowing circle on the ground and it goes faster overall.

Actually Bethesda rpgs are bad and Starfield is better. Yeah people will think I'm crazy for this but the writing and setting is largely improved. I don't know if there is any actual quality improvement, but every character having the personality of your most boring friend who works in HR is much more tolerable in a near future real world setting than the same in fantasy land with dragons and wizards. I cannot remember a single character from FO3, Oblivion, Skyrim or FO4 who I cared about in any way (except for the robot detective he was cool). I went through the list of Skyrim companions and have no idea who any of them are except for Lydia because of memes. Like Sarah is boring but the bar is so low "annoying british lady who likes exploring space" still has more depth on them.

There was a period where I would actually draw two different versions of a monster — the one that was weird and that I wanted to be in the game, and then one that was loving crazy. And so I’d go to Todd, and I’m like, “OK, I think I’ve got the mid-level creature set.” And I’d show him a picture. He’d be like, “Nah, dude, that’s crazy.” Then I’d go back to my office and I would act like I was drawing something new, and I’d just come back with the original drawing of what I really wanted to be in there. Like, “Hey, is this what you were thinking?” And he’d be all, “Oh, yeah, that’s much better. That’s great.”

Dear Bethesda please let me put an elevator or stairs in my ship instead of having to deal with these slow-rear end ladders that the crew keep blocking TIA Gonna try finding that bridge with the stairs later, but that's still only 2 levels and I'd like to keep using the HopeTech cockpit

The ladders would be 1000% more tolerable if the game let me pick where to place them (and doors between habs too) instead of having to either design my ship in such a way that only one ladder/door arrangement is possible or moving habs around randomly in hopes that one combination of rooms results in a sane, tolerable layout that doesn't delete any useful hab amenities

Volte posted:Kind of a bizarre take honestly. Mapping a brightness range onto the dynamic range of your monitor is a necessary part of rendering with any kind of realism and the only other way to do it would be to crush the dynamic range of the entire world onto what your monitor can display simultaneously. It's not a cheap rendering trick for realism, it's necessary for dark areas and bright areas to coexist.

I chose parents and "Pilgrim" back story and they were just regular old parents, but I found that refreshing. They were proud of me and the dad would kind of impose himself on Constellation in a way I found endearing. I will say (quest spoilers) they would give me anxiety when really bad poo poo happened in New Atlantis. IIRC they absolutely had dialogue after the terrormorph attack. I don't think they said anything after The Hunter but I sort of said my pretend goodbyes and started living on my ship then, it wasn't fair for me to hang around a city
